More knitted things for baby girl

I've slowed down some with the knitting lately, as I'm finally feeling a little better this pregnancy - enough to get out more and do other things. But here are the last two finished items, which were waiting for buttons till last night.

This is the dress I posted about a while back - I chose the hearts fabric. I think it's about a size 6-12 mo (stretchy bodice because it's knitted).



This little sweater is the free Autumn Leaves pattern. The yarn is some I dyed when I was first experimenting with "breaking" Wilton's icing dyes. This lovely seafoam and lilac colourway was dyed on a Patons Classic wool white base with Wilton's Delphinium Blue, which is a gray-blue. This is the colour it's supposed to be:
When I added acid to the dye, it broke into it's component colours, and this is what I got:

Handmade Christmas!

Very excited to be able to give a handmade gift to the people whose names I pulled for both family gift exchanges!

My little sister has a Maplelea Doll (Canadian version of American Girl Doll) and two Bitty Baby dolls. So far this is what I have for her (I think I need to stop soon!)

Doll Shawl:
















Fur Trimmed Coat, Bonnet, and Boots and matching handbag




















Messenger Bag/Diaper Bag with matching messenger bag for doll

















Made a matching change pad, wipes case with a dozen cloth wipes, and a set of boy and set of girl diapers for the Bitty Twins.
















A nightgown and pajamas for the Bitty Twins.























I think I'm close to done! This is getting a bit out of hand...
